  1. Each has its own roles. Ukraine v. Russia is not a war between modern armies, it's a war between POOR countries with each having modern systems.

  2. The phrase is designed to appeal to mental infants who think in memes, which is why it's near universally effective. It sounds fancy so chumps repeat it to seem sophisticated. I'm an artisan so that makes my last defecation "artisanal".

  3. How energy efficient is shipping used pods for recycling, counting all the steps?

  4. Who is an outsider to decide "worth" from a position of wealth and comfort? If there were better jobs available the workers would obviously apply for them.

  5. Climbing Everest is a complete waste to amuse rich idiots. The sooner it ends the better. ALL of this activity is useless wank but the Sherpa need the money so they are exploited. The sooner it ends or climbers have to guide themselves the better, because self-guided casualties are no loss.

  6. Fall arrest harnesses and rope are not high-tech and should be made available, but many harvesters will reject them in favor of speed. These gents aren't victims but a cooperative effort could greatly improve safety.

  7. Anyone who says the economy is not booming is not looking. People have money to waste on arm jewelry.

  8. (Most of) the American public are proudly ignorant so the few who aren't suffer for the dimwitted beastmob. There is no excuse for an adult with an internet connection be ignorant because the libraries of history are at their fingertips.

  9. Old ordnance built to stop the Red Army finally gets a chance. Warms my old Cold Warrior heart. Russia helped inflict or inflicted nearly EVERY US casualty since WWII by their aid to our enemies. The Soviet Union cannot be permitted to respawn. Every pro-Russian American is a traitor, delusional or both. Russia is responsible for the entire global Left. Ukrainians want freedom from their historic Tsarist then Bolshevik then Stalinist then Putinist murderers. America has a chance to defend civilization as we did in the early Cold War (which never ended). Russia is eternal enemy to civilization, proven from Finland to the eastern Med. Re: cluster munitions, Ukrainians aren't thirdies given to chewing on UXO. They are not going to hoseTHEIR OWN population centers, but rural treelines and fields already heavily mined are fair gam.

  10. Killer deal all around since a cook can retire after 20 years (or hang in longer for the considerable pay bumps) then never lack employment afterwards and if so inclined open their own restaurant (or even better because it's mobile) a good food truck which is quite practical to save for then buy in late career. Unlike noobs a military Culinary Spec will be able to execute in a formal structured manner making civilian regulatory compliance easy. My thanks to the many cooks who fed me well in my USAF career. Anyone who imagines cooks aren't vital should try not eating. NOTE TO SENIOR LEADERSHIP! Let your people experiment then see how your unit reacts. There is much more to life than T-rats.

  11. Tires make excellent industrial farm and agricultural stall mats. The bricks are a good idea but adding mat production could boost profits. Those mats are excellent flooring (as are the "bricks"). I use mine as easily removable pavers over my underground water lines, and inside my shops.

  12. The vast majority of the production is in manual labor. What is the actual percentage cost of the raw materials and what are their margins in which specific markets? The amount of cement used per tile is quite small, yet large construction projects continue using thousands of tons. More useful detail is required to understand the actual market reality.

  13. The US was founded by a tiny few intellectuals not to be confused with the simple religious fanatics who took over afterwards. The base credulity required to buy superstitions ensures an intellectually unequipped population who are promptly exploited by their mental (but not ethical) betters. That's why the US only makes technological progress. This will never improve.

  14. The business is obviously profitable so if the owners with to compete they will invest in more efficient production. The same workers will then be able to produce more scissors. China's economy was in ruins after 1948 so Chinese solved that problem. Indians can certainly do likewise unimpeded by Maoist nonsense which delayed Chinese development by decades.

  15. This may be incredibly difficult to understand but wars require MICs (or support therefrom via external actors nation-state or other) as a condition of victory. Is Ukraine entitled to self-determination? Yes or no? Ukraine was previously acknowledged as a sovereign nation by Russia. This may be incredibly difficult to understand but without business (even in Russia and mainland China) it's impractical to field large armed forces. This may be incredibly difficult to understand but individual actors can have mixed motives. If your group requires arms then someone has to pay workers to produce them and pay for the materials, infrastructure etc. All conflict is part business, even the Shining Path guerillas protect their revenue sources.

  16. Installing it in low income housing will surely end well. The system is inherently labor-intensive. BTW if the maintenance tech wants a "corkscrew" that bends one could be made in various ways like torch brazing impact (no chrome) 1/2" universal joints and extensions to let it conform to pipe. For long straight sections the flex extension could be guided by PVC tube the way flexible borescope extensions are guided into jet engines.

  17. Note the workers are shown burning SCRAP TYRES (0:42) for fuel. That's amazingly polluting and terrible for their lungs. The tyre soot effects on the product should also be examined as ingesting even small amounts of burnt modern rubber is highly questionable. Utter economic desperation and profit is why that particular factory is still standing. The workers should at least be issued protective gloves. PPE would avoid many injuries but only if issued by factories as otherwise it would be sold off. Melting salt and vegetable matter could easily be mechanized leaving workers to feed the system more safely. Molten salts are common in industry where larger crucibles (the technical name for that sort of "pot") are used. Molten salt heat treating is common and similar equipment could greatly and profitably boost black salt production.
